Very Positive and Supportive Work Environment.
SUPPORT COORDINATOR

First off it is a place with room to grow, open to every kind of person and personality, making it a comfortable place to work. The support and understanding of life and the willingness of Blue Raven Solar to work with scheduling. Taking care of us employees.

Great Opportunity and Committed Team.
CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE (CSR)

Extremely flexible work schedule, with a very dedicated manager/team. This job is great for getting into the world of sales. The manager at this location is a great people person who is always willing to help. They bring in experienced guests to advocate further the success of the company, but also the success of the employees as well. I was checked on and encouraged when things seemed slowed and the atmosphere there was always welcoming. With a hard-working manager backed by a great team of committed people, it really is an incredible place to work, once my schooling is finished I plan to continue my journey at Blue Raven Solar.

Our Hiring Process

Resume Submission and Phone Interview

 

The process begins when a candidate applies to work with us at our corporate office. Our recruiters assess each applicant and reach out within 1-2 days to conduct a brief phone call to review the job description and the applicant’s resume.

Cognitive Assessment

 

After speaking with applicants on the phone, our recruiters will send a link to a 50-question cognitive assessment to evaluate the vital skills each team member at Blue Raven Solar needs to have to succeed. Depending on the position the applicant is applying for, there are different benchmarks pre-determined and that need to be met to qualify for the next step in the hiring process – the in-person interview.

Corporate Office Tour and Interview

 

When a candidate arrives at our headquarters for their interview, they will be welcomed by one of our recruiters. It will most likely be the Blue Raven Solar contact they have been communicating with thus far in the process. The recruiter will take every candidate on a tour of the office before taking them to an interview room. From there, they are usually introduced to the manager of the department they could work for.  

 

The interviewing process takes between an hour and an hour and a half. The first half of the time is spent with the department manager, going through the applicant’s resume, the position they applied for and a more in-depth conversation, where questions can be asked, and day-In-the-life anecdotes are shared. This is a great time for our applicants to fully assess if Blue Raven Solar is the right place for them, and for our managers to determine if the applicant is a good fit for our culture.  

 

The second half of the interview is often referred to as a “case study,” but is also known as a problem-solving exercise. This is done with a department director and goes through a real-life Blue Raven Solar problem many of our employees face with customers, especially those in operations. We typically introduce our six-step problem solving method during this exercise, allowing our directors to evaluate the applicant’s real-time brainstorming and situational analysis skills. This part may seem worrisome, but you don’t need to be a solar technology expert to succeed, and your interviewer will help guide you through it. 

 

Hiring managers will decide within three days (sometimes even the same day) and notify candidates promptly once a decision is made. If an offer letter is extended, onboarding will begin.
